Don't Allow Photos From Different Galleries To Be Added To Collections
An option within collections to not allow customers to add photos to one collection from different galleries.

How to update:
The first time each day you log into the admin it will check for the update. If you have already logged into your admin today , then you won't get the notice until tomorrow.

If you are currently using Sytist version 1.0.0 or higher, you can have it check for the update again by clicking on Settings in the main menu. Then scroll down and below the left menu, click MySQL query. Copy the following line of code, paste it in the query box and click run.

UPDATE ms_history SET upgrade_check='';

Then return to your admin home page.

If the auto update feature won't work for you for some reason, you will have to manually update.

When using the auto update from the admin and it seems to hang when trying to unzip, then the ZIP functions are probably not enabled in the PHP on your hosting. You can contact your host and ask them to enable the ZIP functions in PHP.

I have looked into the google calendar integration several times and just haven't been able to get my head wrapped around it and there documentation and not very good when it comes to that. I am sure I will try again at some point.

Mike, see attached. It won't show that if the project is closed though.

There seems to be a bug in customer favourites in 3.0 resulting in the customer having hundreds or even thousands of favourites (seems to be duplicated favouries). I understand Tim is working on a fix - but I have alreday had an upset customer on to me... This is reported elsewhere in the support forum - but I thought worth posting here on the update thread too as I was really confused when it was first reported to me.

Stephen, do you not see an update notice on your admin homepage? If so, go to Settings -> Admin/Main Settings and make sure check for updates is set to yes.

Chris, I released an update this morning with a fix for the duplicate favorites.

If you have already logged into the admin today and don't see the update notice, you can have it check again by clicking on Settings in the main menu. Then scroll down and below the left menu, click MySQL query. Copy the following line of code, paste it in the query box and click run.

Are there photos actually selected for the collection options not showing? Meaning it isn't an empty collection? Actual photos get exported and if the photo is from a collection that has options, the options will export with the photo.
